a nurse is caring for a client in an emergency department. which of the following findings indicates an anaphylactic reaction? (select all that apply.)\nlow blood pressure\nwheezing\nbradycardia\nperipheral edema\ndifficulty swallowing
Answer
Brief Explanations:
Anaphylactic reaction is a severe allergic response. Low blood pressure (hypotension) occurs due to vasodilation. Wheezing is from bronchoconstriction. Difficulty swallowing comes from airway swelling. Bradycardia is not typical (tachycardia is more common), and peripheral edema is not a classic anaphylactic sign.
Answer:
A. Low blood pressure, B. Wheezing, E. Difficulty swallowing
